delay的詳細講解：
詞語用法
v. (動詞)
- delay的基本意思是行動遲緩而耽誤了進程,可指由于外界原因而推遲,也可指有意推遲。
- delay可用作不及物動詞,也可用作及物動詞。用作及物動詞時,接名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語,不接動詞不定式作賓語。接表人的名詞或代詞作賓語時,一般譯為“使某人誤事”或“使某人慢下來”; 接表事〔事物〕的名詞或代詞作賓語時,通常譯為“推遲〔耽擱〕做某事”。
- delay指“耽擱,延遲”這一行為或情況本身時,是不可數名詞; 表示具體的“被耽擱〔推遲〕的事件或時間”時,是可數名詞。
- delay在句中可用作主語、賓語或表語。常與“in+ v -ing”連用。
-
delay的意思為“推遲”，“延期”，相當于put off，其后通常接名詞，動名詞作賓語，一般很少接不定式。
I have to delay answering his question.
-
delay in解釋為“把某事耽擱”，其后一般接動名詞，不接不定式或者of加動名詞。
Excuse me for my delay in answering your question.
請原諒我耽擱了回答你的問題。
詞義辨析
v. (動詞)
- delay v-ing, delay in v-ing
-
- 這兩個短語意思不同:前者表示“推遲〔耽誤〕做某事”,后者表示“忘記做某事”。試比較:
- They delayed publishing the article.
- 他們推遲發表這篇文章。
- Don't delay in answering the letter.
- 別忘記回信。
- delay, detain, retard, slacken, slow
-
- 這組詞都可表示“使某人〔事〕落后于”原計劃的安排或通常的進展速度。它們之間的區別是:delay主要指因某事的干擾而妨礙按時完成或到達; detain主要指耽誤時間,不能按時到達或離開,也可指不能完成想完成的事情; retard主要指減慢運動、進步速度; slow常與up或down連用,指降低進步的速度,強調主觀的意圖和目的性; slacken側重某種松弛〔懈〕。例如:
- I was detained late in the factory.廠里有事我無法脫身,很晚才離開。
- Cold weather retards the growth of the crops.寒冷的天氣妨礙作物的生長。
- His bad leg slows him down a lot.他那條受傷的腿使他的速度大受影響。
- Don't slacken your efforts when the job is only half done.工作只做到一半時可別松勁。
- delay, dawdle, lag, loiter, procrastinate
-
- 這組詞都可表示因行動或動作緩慢而使進步受阻或工作沒有完成。它們之間的區別是:delay常指拖延某事(如出發、完成必要的工作等); procrastinate常指因懶惰、匆忙、冷淡或拖拉的習慣造成耽擱; lag主要指不能保持應有的速度去達到某個目的; loiter主要指進行中或完成工作時的耽擱,也可指因閑逛而落后; dawdle語義比loiter稍弱,側重閑散、思想不集中而多花時間或浪費時間。例如:
- He procrastinated in making an appointment to see his doctor.他遲遲不與他的醫生預約看病。
- The small boy soon became tired and lagged far behind.這小男孩一會兒就累了,遠遠地落到了后面。
- We don't increase our earnings by loitering over our work.我們靠磨洋工是不會增加收入的。
- Ade dawdled all the way to school.艾德在上學途中磨磨蹭蹭的。
- delay，postpone，defer，suspend，prolong，put off
-
- 這些動詞或短語均有“推延，延期”之意。
- delay普通用詞，多指因外界原因推遲或耽誤，也可指有意推遲。
- postpone正式用詞，語氣較強，多指有安排的延期，常指明延期到一定的時間。
- defer正式用詞，語氣強于postpone，多指故意拖延。
- suspend指暫時中斷以待某種條件的實現。
- prolong指把時間延長至超過正?；蛲ǔ５南薅?。
- put off口語用詞，與postpone同義，但較通俗。
常見錯誤
n. (名詞)
-
他因沒有及早回信而向她表示歉意。
誤 He apologized to her for the delay to reply to a letter.
誤 He apologized to her for the delay of replying to a letter.
正 He apologized to her for the delay in replying to a letter.
析 delay可接“in+動名詞”,但不可接動詞不定式或“of+動名詞”。
詞源解說
- ☆ 13世紀晚期進入英語，直接源自古法語的delaier：de(離開）+laier(讓），意為讓……離開；最初源自古典拉丁語的laxare，意為解散，放松。
